Yeah, but not 95s on groomers. Something narrower than the AXs. I'll look into SC or SL and may take whatever they have. What about WRT? More demanding than the AXs?
Take your pick.

Honestly I'd love to hear a first hand account of what the current CX is skiing like. It's the one Stöckli that gets almost no attention here. I took a couple of runs on one but it was probably ten years ago. I - and presumably it - have changed. Maybe we should get @Henry to buy one so we can find out.

A sweet new Winterstieger Jupiter in town. Gelled from the first turn, an amazing ride.
Yes... and in the video they show how you can put a QR code on each pair that it can read, so you don't even need to program anything if you tune those skis again.Can the machine take different settings for each pair of skis?

Has to be twice that and then some. Robotic machines were $250k 20 years ago and much simpler. Software upgrades are 10-20k on machines.I remember hearing it was around $300k US.
The Mercury came out in 2013 at $300k so I’m sure they are more expensive now!Has to be twice that and then some. Robotic machines were $250k 20 years ago and much simpler. Software upgrades are 10-20k on machines.
It would be interesting to see the economics. I’m thinking it’s somewhat like farm machinery.What does it cost? I'd think it would have to run all night, every night, lots of pairs of skis, to cover its lease or purchase cost.
James, you can rent my old Eeyore avatar for a few days if you want. You know, take the heat off me for a while as the resident cynic.It would be interesting to see the economics. I’m thinking it’s somewhat line farm machinery.
Until these machines have some sort of feedback loop for checking the work, (mostly base flatness), they’re not any better, and can be much worse, than a skilled operator on a hand fed base grinder. Which isn’t cheap either.
The variable side edge angle is no big plus afaik. I’m not even a fan of the variable base bevel.
QR code means they’ll ruin your AX edge geometry like the factory if you’re not a low level skier.
What’s up with the calm lake scene? Fishing I doubt, too random and uncooperative.James, you can rent my old Eeyore avatar for a few days if you want. You know, take the heat off me for a while as the resident cynic.
Barely snow. Barely anyone to run the equipment some places. Real estate boon is a bust for employees.Is that ruin or run your geometry Eeyore,,,
er,,,,I mean,,,, James ?
What’s happening to you guys on the east coast ? A wee bit gloomier than usual, there is snow in VT, yes ?
